Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:2.8.6-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
When nfs-common is installed on Debian, udev invokes
/usr/libexec/nfsrahead via
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-nfs.rules. On boot nfsrahead fails with an I/O
error
and repeatedly logs "expected the device number of a BDI; is udev ok?", and
numerous files named "." (about 20) are created in the root filesystem,
consuming storage.
Steps to reproduce:
- Install nfs-common on Debian (current unstable).
- Reboot the system.
- Observe repeated journal/syslog messages from udev and nfsrahead and
multiple
files named ".NNNNN" in /.
Observed behavior:
- Journal shows repeated lines like: (udev-worker)[PID]:
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-nfs.rules:1 PROGRAM="/usr/libexec/nfsrahead %k":
Failed to execute "/usr/libexec/nfsrahead ": Input/output error
nfsrahead[PID]:
expected the device number of a BDI; is udev ok?
- Many files with names matching the regex /^\.\d+$/ are created in the root
directory (/) during boot.
- Manually running /usr/libexec/nfsrahead from a console does not
reproduce the
crash.
Additional information:
- package: nfs-common
- affected binary: /usr/libexec/nfsrahead
- riggering rule: /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-nfs.rules
(PROGRAM="/usr/libexec/nfsrahead %k")
- Relevant log snippets: "(udev-worker)[...]:
PROGRAM="/usr/libexec/nfsrahead
%k": Failed to execute "/usr/libexec/nfsrahead ...": Input/output error
nfsrahead[...]: expected the device number of a BDI; is udev ok?"
